6 Social Media Monitoring Softwares For Enterprise
Gone are the days when you could set up an email alert on Google for brand mentions and be content with daily updates. Brands today have realized the importance of listening to conversations live, second by second, in the digital world.
Listening is not enough. Brands are interested to learn about conversations, get insights from them, validate them, score and action them if needed on social media.
